ABSTRACT:
The subject invention includes non-naturally occurring salt tolerant plants that accumulate sodium in their tissues substantially in the vacuole. The present invention also includes methods of making such non-naturally occurring plants. One preferred method is generating a transgenic plant that has an ectopically expressed NHX related gene product.
